Safety Step Stepladder
A ladder with supplementary support legs is an apparatus that provides increased stability when compared to traditional stepladders. The apparatus includes a left support mechanism, a right support mechanism, and a front set of rungs. The left support mechanism and the right support mechanism are identical halves of the apparatus. Each support mechanism includes a ladder rail, a bracing leg, and a pivoting outrigger. The ladder rail and bracing leg are hinged together and are able to move between an expanded and collapsed configuration. The outrigger pivots away from the ladder rail and bracing leg to create a tripod between the three legs. The front set of rungs functions as steps which are connected between the ladder rails of the left support mechanism and the right support mechanism.
